1955 SEMI-FINAL RESULTS:

Thank you for all of you who have participated in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project, and if you are unaware of what that is, simply, we acted as if the PFHOF had their first class in January of 1946?

We have completed the years up to 1954.

For “1955” a Preliminary Vote with over 130 players whose playing career ended by 1949. We are also following the structure in that players have 20 years of eligibility, and if they do not make it into the Hall, they are relegated to the Senior Pool.

Each voter was asked to select 25 names from the preliminary list, with the top 25 vote getters named as Semi-Finalists.

A week later, the voters were asked to pick 15 names from the 25 Semi-Finalists, and next week, they will pick five from the remaining 15. We will continue this process weekly until we catch up to the current year.

31 Votes took place, with the top five advancing.

This is for the “Modern Era”

Stepping into the exciting world of online casinos doesn't have to be a costly affair. Thanks to the rise of 5 dollar deposit casinos in Canada, you can start betting and winning with a modest budget. These casinos, which have rapidly become a favourite among both new and experienced players alike, allow you to deposit a mere $5 and start playing.

This is a far cry from the hefty minimum deposits required by many traditional online casinos, making iGaming more accessible to all. So whether you're a budget-conscious beginner looking to dip your toes into the thrilling waters of online gambling or a seasoned player seeking a cost-effective gaming option, a $5 deposit online casino could be your perfect match.

Advantages of 5$ Deposit Online Casinos

Aside from being kind to your wallet, online casinos that accept $5 deposits bring a whole host of benefits. For starters, they give you the chance to experience the rush of real money gaming without burning a hole in your pocket. By lowering the barriers to entry, these casinos are making online gaming more accessible to a broader audience. Now, anyone can join the high rollers' club, even on a shoestring budget!

Another major advantage is the opportunity to explore a variety of games. At a 5 dollar deposit casino, you can try out a plethora of slots, table games, and even live dealer options. This way, you can find your favourite games and hone your skills without putting significant money at risk. It's a win-win situation: you get the thrill of playing for real money and the peace of mind knowing you're not risking much.

Let's not forget the attractive bonuses and promotions on offer. Many $5 deposit casinos come with generous welcome bonuses, free spins, and other perks to enhance your gaming experience. So not only do you get to play more for less, but you also stand a chance to win big!

Last but not least, these casinos also tend to have an excellent customer service. As they cater to a diverse pool of players, they understand the importance of providing prompt and friendly customer support. So should you encounter any issues or have any queries, you can expect quick and helpful responses.

In a nutshell, online casinos that accept $5 deposits are a fantastic way to enjoy the thrill of gambling without splashing the cash. They're the perfect example of 'more bang for your buck', delivering a high-quality gaming experience at an affordable price!

Possible Limitations

While the low-stakes thrill of casinos minimum deposit 5 is undoubtedly appealing, it's not entirely free of potential pitfalls. One prominent concern is the limited range of games available. Typically, high roller games and live dealer games might be out of bounds for minimum deposit players. Additionally, the potential winnings are often not as significant as when you gamble with a sizable bankroll.

Another limitation lies in the withdrawal terms and conditions. Some online casinos have a higher minimum withdrawal limit than the deposit limit. In such cases, you might need to win a fair bit before you can actually cash out your earnings. Lastly, some casinos might exclude low depositors from attractive promotional offers and bonuses.

Comparison Between Minimum Deposit and Regular Online Casinos

Contrasting 5$ deposit casinos with their regular counterparts reveals a realm of differences. Regular online casinos often demand a hefty initial deposit, thus deterring casual gamers or those with a tight budget. On the contrary, minimum deposit casinos provide an affordable entry point into the exciting world of online gambling.

However, regular online casinos often offer a broader range of games and higher potential winnings. They're also likely to provide more lucrative bonus offers, catering to a gambler looking for substantial profits. Payment methods may also be more diverse, with options like secure eChecks available.

Popular 5$ Deposit Online Casinos and their Features

Among the casinos minimum deposit 5, several stand out for their features and popularity. The likes of Jackpot City, Captain Cooks Casino, and Zodiac Casino have carved a niche for themselves. They offer a variety of games, from slot machines to blackjack, catering to a wide audience.

These casinos are known for their user-friendly interfaces, variety of payment methods, and robust customer support. Additionally, they provide exciting bonuses and promotional offers, making them even more attractive for budget-conscious gamblers.

How to Make the Most out of 5$ Casino Deposit

To get the best value from your minimum deposit, it's crucial to approach it with a strategic mindset. Firstly, familiarize yourself with the casino's game selection and find games with the lowest house edge. These games give you a higher chance of winning, allowing you to stretch your bankroll further.

Next, keep an eye out for bonuses. Many 5$ deposit casinos offer welcome bonuses or free spins, which can significantly boost your playing potential. Lastly, be sure to manage your bankroll wisely. While the excitement of a winning streak can be intoxicating, remember to gamble responsibly and know when to stop.

Conclusion

Ultimately, whether a 5$ deposit online casino is the right fit for you depends on your gaming preferences and budget. If you're seeking a low-risk, budget-friendly gaming platform, then these casinos could be the perfect fit. 

However, if you're in pursuit of higher winnings and a wider game variety, you may need to consider regular online casinos. Either way, remember to read the terms and conditions carefully, gamble responsibly, and most importantly, have fun!

If you are a regular visitor at Notinhalloffame.com, you know that we created the Notinhalloffame NHL Cup, where in every regular season game, we award points (5-4-3-2-1) to the top five performers.  This is the third year that we have done this, and Edmonton’s Connor McDavid won the first two.

To keep everyone regularly in the loop this time, we have decided to give regular updates, starting at Thanksgiving, and tell all of you the top ten.  We will be doing updates every Wednesday.

Here is the seventh current top ten in Notinhalloffame Cup Points:

1. David Pastrnak, Boston Bruins. 93 Cup Points:  46 Games, 30 G, 37 A, 67 P, +12, 8.4 PS. (#1 Last Week)

The Boston Bruins (like last year) have been the best team early in the season, and it is the Czech Republic’s David Pastrnak who has led their offensive threat.  He is the league-leader in Shots (233), is third in Points (67), fourth in Goals (30) and Point Shares (8.4) and ninth in Assists (37) and is Boston’s leading scorer, and is in the top ten in most essential offensive categories.  Could he win his first Hart, but if not, maybe his first NIHOF Cup?   

2. Nikita Kucherov, Tampa Bay Lightning.  84 Cup Points, 47 Games, 31 G, 49 A, 80 P, +1, 9.2 PS.  (#2 Last Week)

Kucherov is in his tenth season in Tampa, and is putting forth a season that could gain him another Hart or Art Ross Trophy.  He is leading the NHL in Points (80) and is second in Assists (49) and third in Goals (31).  It is a minor surprise that he is not first in Cup Points, but he is close.

3.  Auston Matthews, Toronto Maple Leafs, 79 Cup Points:  44 Games, 38 G, 18 A, 56 P, +12, 7.8 PS. (#3 Last Week)

The American sniper is back as the league’s top goal-scorer, holding the lead in that (36) and Even-Strength Goals (29).  If he holds that, Matthews will win his third Rocket Richard Trophy, though Kucherov is closing in fast.

4.  Nathan MacKinnon, Colorado Avalanche, 69 Cup Points:  47 Games, 26 G, 51 A, 77 P, +13, 8.4 PS. (#5 Last Week)

Mackinnon remains the league-leader in Assists (51), is second in Points (77) and ninth in Goals (26).  He is also second in Shots (213) and third in Point Shares (8.4).

5 (TIE). Juuse Saros, Nashville Predators, 68 Cup Points:  37 Games, 18-18-1 Record, 2.94 GAA, .904 Save Percentage, 6.0 PS.  (Not Ranked in the Top Ten Last Week)

Saros comes back to the top ten, and does so with an even Won/Loss record.  A surprise to be here (like he was before), Saros is a workhorse who is third in Minutes Played (2,081) and fourth in Saves (946) and is sixth in Goalie Point Shares.  He is not the best Goalie this season, but here he is.  That is the way Cup Points can work.

5 (TIE). Artemi Panarin, New York Rangers, 68 Cup Points:  47 Games, 29 G, 34 A, 63 P, -3, 7.4 PS.  (Not Ranked in the Top Ten Last Week)

Panarin is back where he belongs in the top ten, and let’s see if he falls off again.  Currently, he is fourth in Points (63), fifth in Goals (29) and tenth in Assist (63).

7. Connor McDavid, Edmonton Oilers, 67 Cup Points: 41 Games, 17 G, 43 A, 60 P, +13, 6.4 PS.  (#4 Last Week)

The Edmonton Oilers began the year as a disappointment, but they have been on fire as of late.  McDavid has not been lighting the lamp like he did last year, but he has however been a great playmaker, and is fifth in Assists (43) and eighth in Points (60).  Can he make it back to the top of the mountain and win the NIHOF Cup again?

8. Sidney Crosby, Pittsburgh Penguins, 67 Cup Points:  44 Games, 27 G, 21 A, 48 P, +18, 6.4 PS.  (#5 Last Week)

We have to admit we are happy to see Sidney Crosby in the top ten, as even though “Sid the Kid” is over 35, we are still talking about a legend!  Crosby is seventh in Goals (27) and second in Even Strength Goals (21) as of this writing.

9. (TIE). Sam Reinhart, Florida Panthers, 66 Cup Points:  46 Games, 34 G, 24 A, 58 P, +14, 8.0 PS.  (#7 Last Week)

Currently having the best year of his life, Reinhart is the current leader in Power Play Goals (17), and Shooting Percentage (26.8), and is also second in Goals (34), fifth in Point Shares (8.0), and tenth in Points (58).  Historically a good player, Reinhart has never had a first half like this before.

9 (TIE). Thatcher Demko, Vancouver Canucks, 66 Cup Points:  34 Games, 25-8-1 Record, 2.40 GAA, .922 Save Percentage, 7.8 PS.  (Not Ranked in the Top Ten Last Week)

Like Saros, Demko makes his top ten return, and he takes the place of Elias Pettersson to give the Canucks a top ten player.  He is the NHL leader in Wins (25) and Shutouts (5), and is sixth in both Goals Against Average (2.40) and Save Percentage (.922).

9 (TIE). Connor Hellebuyck, Winnipeg Jets, 66 Cup Points:  34 Games, 23-8-3 Record, 2.17 GAA, .925 Save Percentage, 7.9 PS.  (Not Ranked in the Top Ten Last Week)

Hellebucyk is in the top ten for the first time, and the former Vezina Trophy winner is leading the league in Goalie Point Shares with 7.9.  The Winnipeg Jet is second in GAA (2.17) and third in Save Percentage (.925).

Colorado’s Mikko Rantanen, Nashville’s Filip Forsberg and Vancouver’s Elias Pettersson fell out of the top ten.

Our next update will be next Wednesday.
